Radioimmunotherapy combinations

3 main clinical scenario’s

IT + hypofractionated RT for oligometastatic disease

Clinical goal: reduce distant failures (effect outside radiation field)

Mechanism: in situ vaccination effect coupled to local and systemic

effects IT

IT + chemoRT

Clinical goal: enhance efficacy of chemo-RT locally and reduce

distant failures

Mechanism: local and distant synergies between RT and

immunomodulation

RT + IT

Clinical goal: maximize efficacy of IT against specific tumor deposit

(effect within radiation field)

Mechanism: RT = biological response modifier
